Chapter 373: Words and Spirits
Although the opponent is not Ling Yi, but the great knight Kusla, it is more difficult to deal with in a sense. In a cross-level duel, either the victory is overwhelming, or the defeat is due to the carelessness of the strongest side.
In the battle between the same ranks, the first thing is to see which of the skills of both sides is higher or lower, and then the abilities such as: insight, reflexes, etc., and even illusory luck.
Kusra is Chinese New Year's Eve five years old and has been the head of the Dragon Knights for four or five years. At that time, the [Dragon Knights] were expelled by the emerging forces in Romania, and in order to survive, they gradually took up the work of the mercenary group, like a tiger licking its wounds, slowly accumulating strength and waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.
Before forming a feud with the [Bronze Black Cross], Kusla led most of the members to fight around the world, and he really couldn't spare his hands to assassinate the old commander himself, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen into a prisoner.
Despite the peaceful years, Kusra has endured numerous battles.
Years of fighting have taught him how to win most efficiently.
The main thing is, the master said.
――It's okay to kill them.
Seizing the fleeting plane, Kusla resembled an arrow, greatly shortening the distance between the two sides, and the thunderous 'cursed sword' slashed cleanly.
He didn't expect to be able to get rid of Erica easily, after all, Erica was a famous genius, and at a young age, she was a great knight of the same rank as him. Even if he lacks experience in fighting strong opponents, the strength of the 'Great Knight' is by no means false.
Kusla was staring at Erica's shoulder, more precisely. It's the left shoulder.
There are two reasons for this, one is a high hit rate and the other is
“――!” Kusla frowned.
Swords collided violently, sparks burst out, and a huge amount of mana rolled up a whirlpool, churning the night air. The galloping mana was like a wild horse, and the hurricane spread violently, bending the weeds around it.
"It was an onslaught from the beginning, even though it was expected at the beginning. But I can only cope in this way, and to be honest, I don't feel very comfortable. Erica smiled helplessly. The body strengthened by magic is like a military flag planted on the ground. The left arm is steady. Resist powerful slashes from opponents.
Kusla glanced at the shield blocking the 'Cursed Sword'.
Round shields for infantry. Made of steel, the red surface is painted with the coat of arms of the black cross.
Few people are comfortable wielding such heavy weapons in a full-fledged duel.
But he knew that the commander of the [Bronze Black Cross] was not an elegant gentleman wielding a sword, but a warrior who charged bravely like a Spartan warrior with a spear and shield. The knight on the horse could not match him in the slightest.
Just because of the spirit of chivalry, noble concept. before being recognized as a descendant of knights.
In fact. The ancient knights of Temple were such a group of weirdos.
I thought it was Paul's niece, maybe there would be a similar method.
As a result, this way of fighting was inherited unchanged.
Kusla didn't say a word, and gave Erica a deep look.
"It lives up to its name."
Accompanied by words. The old knight who was on the verge of evil moved.
It was all too natural—the pace and body coordination that contrasted with the charge and slash just now.
A knightly method of warfare that is completely different from Japanese swordsmanship.
The 'cursed sword' swayed like candlelight, and its pursed lips squirmed slightly.
"There's no place for you here."
Both the chant and the action are extremely short.
This is a swordsmanship derived from the [Dragon Knights] magic system that has been honed on the battlefield for a long time and has strong combat effectiveness.
The smooth sword shape directly transforms into a technique that symbolizes the crusade against evil.
Performing magic with swordsmanship, this hand is really amazing.
"Tsk, Kusla is hiding deep enough."
Ling Yi said in surprise, his eyes fixed on the two people in the battle.
Erica, a descendant of Temple who inherited the Templar Secret Rites, is dwarfed by her swordsmanship, not that her swordsmanship is inferior to Kusla's, but on the contrary, when it comes to swordsmanship alone, Kusla has to bow to the upper hand, after all, since she was born, she has held a sword, recited sacred verses, and freely manipulated steel, and won the title of 'Red Demon' with a tough and changeable style.
But Kusla is well aware of his inferiority to Erica, so he uses his strengths to suppress the opponent's advantages as much as possible while avoiding his weaknesses.
This is similar to Tian Ji horse racing.
"It seems that the rumors of a defeat with the demon dragon of the past are true, although Kusla . Isco has never been blessed by miracles, but he has a keen eye for battle and a clear and cool mind. ”
On the city wall, the 'Purple Knight' did not hesitate to praise him.
The two old men next to them were listless, even though there was a dragon fight in front of them, but they couldn't see the king's means, which made them disappointed.
"Is it not even a princess? That guy has been locked up for so long, but his skills have not diminished. ”
Clarence shook his head, sighing.
"That's not the point. The key thing is that he can be favored by the king, otherwise he can only spend his life as a prisoner in this life. ”
The words 'Purple Knight' are by no means alarmist.
If it weren't for Ling Yi having seen the strength of the members of the [Dragon Knights] and using this to guess the general level of its leader, he wouldn't have bothered to save Kusla. There are so many capable people in the world, although talents of this level are very rare, he can cultivate them by himself.
Although it will take a long time to do it
Straight to the point.
"It's really great to combine magic and swordsmanship, but don't underestimate me because of it."
Erica used her shield to block the successive slashes as she adjusted her pace to lay the groundwork for a counterattack.
"The lion of steel, the red shield, my words and spirits respond to my will!"
The mana contained in the shield swelled in an instant, like an invisible repulsion.
The maiden chanted the hymn and brandished her sword vigorously.
What is the glory of the knights, perhaps a lot is incomprehensible. But the only thing worth affirming is that if you can't break through the enemy formation in a dignified manner, you can't be called a knight!
"Drink!" Reinhardt held the 'cursed sword', and Erica rushed into Kusla with her shield in her left hand.
Not only swords, but also shields can be used as weapons.
She relieved this with her actions.
But at this moment, there was a little light, and then a cloud of light slowly spread, and time became slow
Until the fiery breath brushed his face—
Rumble!
"Princess!"
Clarence looked nervous, and was about to go down the city wall when he was stopped by the three of them.
"Don't mess around, this is a sacred duel, do you want to discredit your princess?"
The thin old man said very politely.
He is the commander of the old lady, let alone Clarence. Even Paul. Bluntree in person. He dared to say that, too.
"That's right, not to mention Kusla. Isco was a close confidant of the king, and the king would not stand idly by if something happened. ”
The Purple Knight said calmly.
"You," Clarence was furious. If it weren't for the king's presence. Otherwise, he suspected that this was a conspiracy against the next successor of the [Red Bronze Black Cross].
"Look at it." The Knight's Martial Knight's defense is not bad. ”
The commander of the [female wolf] said very calmly.
He had the privilege of meeting Paul. How did Bnuttree fight the beast alone, you must know that there was more than one one. If it weren't for the strong defensive armament, no matter how brave the martial arts were, there would be no place to die.
The field was filled with smoke and dust. Suddenly, the two figures broke through the smoke and dust like arrows from the string, and opened a long distance in one breath.
"Phew-" Kusla let out a long breath, if it weren't for the habit of using mana to protect his body, the explosion just now would not have been as simple as churning with blood and qi.
But more than that, he cares more about the condition of his opponent.
When it is young, the dust falls.
Kusla looked at it, and the blonde girl's simple clothes had become dirty, and she looked rather wolfish.
It's just a wolf bèi, it's nothing at all.
What he wants is a tangible result.
Erica's change of move was beyond his expectations, and he had no choice but to blow up the 'cursed sword'.
Having said that, this trick was taught to him by Ling Yi.
Specifically restrain the opponent's surprise attack, as long as you take precautions in advance, there will be no lose-lose situation.
Sure enough, the power is amazing.
Even he himself was taken aback.
"Looks like I won this duel."
Kusla spoke, his voice soft, but reaching the ears of everyone present.
"No, it's early."
Erica coughed, calmed her breath, and got back to her feet.
"Really? So"
Kusla muttered, conjuring another 'cursed sword'.
"The ghosts tremble below the great water and the water tribe."
"Hades shall be revealed before God, and destruction shall not be hidden."
Suddenly, the mana rolled up.
"Blessed be the Lord who bears our burdens daily, the God of our salvation."
The Lord of the Dragon Knights, Vlad III was originally a follower of Islam.
This is the so-called 'magic of the monks'.
Each time you chant, the mana that wraps around your body is strengthened, and the 'curse sword' becomes sharper.
Kusla walked slowly towards Erica.
The 'curse sword' held in his right hand contracted and expanded unsteadily, as if it was about to explode at any moment. But come to think of it, as a spellcaster, he will definitely be fine.
As for the enemy, this is not in his consideration.
Just by feeling the magic power, Erica's hair stood on end.
Even though he hadn't fought yet, his body reacted, and the fear and pain of vomiting from his internal organs scurried around the inside of his skin.
The terrifying chill is like being directly rubbed against the nerve by a file.
Obviously, the other party can't be allowed to increase the strength of the spell so unscrupulously.
“eli,eli,lemasabachthani! Lord, why have you forsaken me? ”
Erica raised her sword to the sky and chanted a spell in a loud voice.
It's not the first time she's used it.,The spirit of the strongest secret ritual she's ever learned in her life.。
"Satisfy me, O God, who calls to you in the daytime. The night was still silent. You are the God who became a holy one, baptized by Israel's many praises! ”
Desperate words shook the atmosphere and caused the world to freeze.
The temperature around is dropping rapidly.
Erica's moves are also too easy to see through.
No, it doesn't matter if it's seen through.
That's what it means. (To be continued......)
